Support for Crawford Road

 W10 Friends and Family


As mentioned in our newsletter, our voices were heard!!!  Now we need help guiding the county to find a path forward that will support our community while, at the same time, protecting the future of aviation at Whidbey Airpark.  
As owner's of Whidbey Airpark (W10) and caretakers to it's longevity and future utilization we support the idea of the county taking over Crawford Road especially the red area on the map.  The yellow area we support as long as the county is willing to take strong measures to keep the speed down and maintain safety for the residents and public who walk, run and/or bike on Crawford Road.  The South end, as noted in blue, is the route that we strongly feel needs to be changed.  The four smaller parcels that the blue line tranverses through are airport zoned properties.  The current route as shown will cut off everything west of the blue line from the airport, therefore making those properties incapable of participating in any future aviation access.  As the county has not placed any compatibility protections for the airport this access paves the way for high density development in the high risk crash zones and incompatible living/working environments.  There are other options, we feel, the county should consider.
For this to be successful, we all need to keep the lines of communication open and involve all the stakeholders in the process.  
If you would like to fly in and participate in this public meeting, there are courtesy cars available as well as we can shuttle folks to the fire station in Bayview.
We hope to see you there!!!
